Ive not seen many Asian films, only one or two from the Tartan Asia (Asia extreme?) label years ago. Can't afford to commit to another long running collection, but I'll probs pick up a few of them, which I defo wouldn't have done for any sex comedies. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Would love to see Bloody Parrot and The Underground Banker amongst others on a Blu-ray label. There are just too many Japanese films that I could list for release.

Something worth keeping an eye on.

I also expect Arrow Video to now announce they are going to Hong Kong movies. Seriously. Watch this space. |

There are cuts to the following: The cockfight The snake that is cut open and bled onto the body of Me Me Lai The cobra vs. mongoose fight The crocodile which is skinned alive We tried to argue the cockfight as this horrible bloodsport is, unfortunately, perfectly legal in parts of Thailand such as Chiang Mai. We really didn't see any issue given that Lenzi was shooting the sort of thing that happens legally. Alas the BBFC, who are as hypocritical as it gets said no (they still haven't told me how kicking around a piglet or tying a monkey to a pole and running around with it, before striking it twice across the head to kill it, are not cruelty. And don't get me started with the pulling of a large turtle out of its habitat in Cannibal Holocaust, including knocking it across the head in the process - look at that scene again if you doubt me). Either way, the new cuts don't disrupt the film - and the 88 Films edition is far superior to anything Raro will be putting out. We have a brand new 80 minute documentary on the life of Me Me Lai, which could just as easily have been a standalone documentary and feature contributions from the lady herself, Eli Roth, Ruggero Deodato and others. We have a new piece with Eli Roth talking about the Italian cannibal boom, an extensive interview with Lenzi himself and a commentary track done by yours truly. As an aside, my new (academic) book on Cannibal Holocaust is now available for pre-order on Amazon. It will, I hope, be of interest to anyone who wants to a read more scholarly and formalist approach to this movie...
